The New Aluminum & Steel Tariffs: A Gift You Didn’t Ask For

The latest tariffs on imported aluminum and steel are being marketed as a way to strengthen domestic production, protect jobs, and ensure economic stability. Sounds great—on paper. But in reality? Expect price hikes, supply chain headaches, and a lot of companies rethinking their strategies.

What Does This Mean for Businesses?

If your product relies on aluminum or steel—say, for instance, a sleek, portable structure that can be placed literally anywhere—then congratulations, you’re now playing a thrilling game of ‘How High Can Costs Go?’ Material prices will spike, lead times will stretch, and suddenly, your carefully calculated profit margins will feel like a distant memory.

For traditional construction, this is a major crisis. Contractors working with small margins and dependent on the fluctuating market price of steel and aluminum will be forced to raise prices, delay projects, and struggle to maintain profitability. Homes, offices, and commercial builds will see significant cost increases, with consumers left to foot the bill.

The Real Winners and Losers

Winners: Domestic aluminum and steel producers, government revenue streams, and the economists who get paid to write reports about all of this.

Losers: Everyone else.

Small businesses? They’ll feel the squeeze first. Large corporations? They’ll adjust, but not without passing the cost onto you. The everyday consumer? They’ll be wondering why their favorite products suddenly got more expensive.
